BACKGROUND: To explore the role of anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) in predicting the need to step up recombinant FSH (rFSH) dose following long GnRH agonist protocol in IVF/ICSI cycles of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) women. METHODS: Thi…

Autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT) is a common endocrine disease which causes a significantly increased risk of miscarriage. Our recent study has shown that the increased ENO1 autoantibody (ENO1Ab) expression in an experimental AIT mouse model wa…

STUDY QUESTION: What are the dynamic expression features of plasma microRNAs (miRNAs) during the peri-implantation period in women with successful pregnancy via single frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer? SUMMARY ANSWER: There is a significa…

Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), one of the most abundant immune cell types in the tumor microenvironment (TME), account for approximately 50% of the local hematopoietic cells. TAMs play an important role in tumorigenesis and tumor deve…

BACKGROUND: Retinal neovascularization (RNV) is a leading cause of blindness worldwide. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) and competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) regulatory networks play vital roles in angiogenesis. The RNA-binding protein galectin…

Abstract Purpose To test the expression profile of transient receptor potential channels (TRPs) in adenomyosis patients and evaluate the effects of primidone on tamoxifen-induced adenomyosis mice. Methods Eutopic endometrium from adenomyosi…

Abstract Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic gynecological disorder that causes infertility and chronic pelvic pain. The aim of the current study was to identify markers of efferocytosis with utility for EM diagnosis.RNA sequencing profile and…

BACKGROUND: Previous clinical trials regarding the therapy in epithelial ovarian tumors have involved patients with all types of ovarian tumors. Mucinous borderline tumors may progress to invasive carcinoma even after therapy and Patients w…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine and metabolic disorder characterized by chronic low-grade inflammation. Previous studies have demonstrated that the gut microbiome can affect the host tissue cells' mRNA N6-methyladenosine (m…

Severe endometrial injury caused by invasive uterine operation and/or endometritis often results in intrauterine adhesions (IUAs), which are named Asherman's syndrome (AS), further leading to menstrual disorders, infertility and severe comp…

S100A6, also known as calcyclin, is a low-molecular-weight Ca2+-binding protein from the S100 family that contains two EF-hands. S100A6 is expressed in a variety of mammalian cells and tissues. It is also expressed in lung, colorectal, panc…

BACKGROUND: Bartholin gland carcinoma (BGC) is an unusual malignancy representing less than 5% of all vulval carcinomas. Due to the limited published information on the diagnosis and treatment of BGC, this tumor is prone to misdiagnosis; mo…

OBJECTIVE: The aim of the research is to study the association between the serum levels of autoantibodies against one important epitope (168FMILPVGAANFREAMR183, designated as P6) of α-enolase (ENO1-P6Abs) and miscarriage among euthyroid fem…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EM) is a common gynecological disorder that often leads to irregular menstruation and infertility. The pathogenesis of EM remains unclear and delays in diagnosis are common. Thus, it is urgent to explore potential…

The uterus is considered to be a unique wound-healing model and distinguished by the repeated shedding of the endometrium and self-traceless regeneration. Common curettage, cesarean section, and other operations often cause endometrial and …

Objectives: This study examined the dose-effect relationship of chitosan and danshen combined injections on the long-term prevention of fallopian tube re-obstructions, with increased pregnancy rates in infertile women. Methods: High-perform…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a common benign gynecological disease characterized by growing-functioning endometrial tissue outside the uterus. Extra-pelvic endometriosis, which accounts for approximately 12% of endometriosis, is more challe…

BACKGROUND: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), the most common heterogeneous reproductive disease afflicting women of childbearing age, has been recognized as a chronic inflammatory disease recently. Most PCOS patients have hyperandrogenism,…

Ferroptosis, a new type of non-apoptotic cell death modality, is different from other modes of cell death and has been primarily found in tumor cells. Previous studies have reported that ferroptosis can be triggered by specific modulators (…

BackgroundConceptions following in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) have an increased risk of congenital anomalies. Few studies have explored the prognosis of fetuses with congenital anomalies. This study…

OBJECTIVE: Given the limitations of current anti-resorption agents for postmenopausal osteoporosis, there is a need for alternatives without impairing coupling crosstalk between bone resorption and bone formation ie. osteoclastogenesis. Pue…

Abstract Objective: Adenomyosis (AM) is an important cause of female infertility, and its disease mechanism remains unclear. This study preliminarily investigated the expression of endometrial receptivity markers homeobox A10 (HOXA10) and l…

INTRODUCTION: Recently, the rate of caesarean sections (CS) worldwide has risen and CS-associated complications such as niche have increased substantially. Until now, evidence-based clinical guidelines for the treatment of niche-related sym…

Preimplantation embryonic lethality is a rare cause of primary female infertility. It has been reported that variants in the transducin-like enhancer of split 6 (TLE6) gene can lead to preimplantation embryonic lethality. However, the incid…

In vitro fertilization (IVF) is an important assisted reproductive technology in treating infertility, whose failure rate is still high. Studies suggested that uterine microbiota are related to women's reproductive diseases and persisting i…
